Correct Answer: From extreme poverty to wealth


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

The idiom "from rags to riches" conveys the idea of a dramatic improvement in financial or social status, specifically from extreme poverty (symbolised by "rags") to wealth and prosperity ("riches").

Therefore, the alternative "from extreme poverty to wealth" accurately captures this transformation, making it the most suitable choice.
